Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

Best case: Panzer Corps 2 at ≈ 104k–169k copies, ≈ $1.1M–$3.1M after Steam's cut.

How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
